Eagle Strike

Alex Rider, schoolboy member of MI6, returns with a new, ingenious, fast paced action adventure. Fans of the three earlier books will not be disappointed as Alex manoeuvres through the lethal, crazy virtual reality world of Damian Cray, mega pop star, world renowned philanthropist and absolutely ruthless nutter, intent on the nuclear destruction of sizeable chunks of Planet Earth. Shamelessly boy orientated, this novel is fast, located across Europe, full of suspense, includes a dose of gadgetry and science lingo, and reads like a special effects/boy Bond movie on the printed page. Well worth stocking, it'll be another hit.
